How do.

Just wondering if anyone has ever had glandular fever and if so how long you had it for. Iv had it for a long time now, bout 2 years or so, dont know much bout it, anyone know how long its supposed to last for and what i might be able to do to get rid of it? Its rather depressing and i just wanna get rid of it.

Any advice much appreciated.

Thx.

2 years!! My Cousin had it once... I thought it was only supposed to last a few weeks or a month.. I know the lethargy can last for longer but 2 years!! jeez that must be horrible!!
anyways some tips which you probably have already been told and arent really all that helpful...

Because glandular fever is a viral infection, antibiotics will not help. The illness must simply run its course.

Advice

Do:

Take aspirin or paracetamol (in modest doses) to relieve discomfort or pain.
Rest (the best treatment), preferably at home and indoors.
Drink plenty of fluids such as water and fruit juices.
Gargle soluble aspirin or 30 per cent glucose to soothe the throat.

Do not:

Drink alcohol or eat fatty foods.
Push yourself to perform tasks.
Attempt to return to your normal daily routine until advised to do so by your doctor (about 4 weeks after the illness starts).

Well I hope you recover soon.
